In illinois, the illinois state police (ISP) SEX offender registration unit is responsible for the receipt, storage, and appropriate dissemination of all SEX offender records

Since the SEX offender registration and notification act (sorna) was signed in july 2006, illinois has taken major steps to come into compliance. Despite these accomplishments, much work remains to be done. In july 2011, illinois submitted a substantial implementation package to the office of SEX offender sentencing, monitoring, apprehending, registering, and tracking (smart office) for review. The smart office provided a report to illinois outlining areas in which illinois was not in compliance with sorna. Among one of the areas in need of improvement, was isps posting of registrant information on the public website and an e-mail notification system for the public. Sorna federal fiscal year 2024 (FFY24) funds will be used to bring the new RMS system to statewide rollout, dissemination, and implementation. FFY24 funds will be utilized to pay for quality assurance, data analytics, and testing functions. Specifically, up to four contractual staff who can perform the necessary functions will be compensated with these funds. Any necessary overtime for project completion will be paid with these funds. Finally, software licenses and subscriptions necessary for the completion of the project will be purchased with these funds.
